Abstract
At the onset of the outdoor swimming season a new freshly-filled pool of balanced water is an essentially oligotrophic environment providing relatively low microbial growth potential. As the season progresses and the level of nutrients in the pool rises, the environment becomes increasingly more conducive to microbial growth. Antimicrobial agents must be added to pool water to eliminate pathogens and control non-pathogenic organisms (e.g. algae), which create undesirable visible effects. The use of chlorine, the traditional and most extensively used pool sanitiser, and alternative non-oxidising agents to control microbial activity, and the feasibility of searching for a novel pool sanitiser are considered.
